certainly looks like that 44932 one, or very similar anyway


That is one of the many Black 5's James now rightly in circulation, and as few are passed for main line running then I believe Mark is right to suggest this one :y :y

I know a few people with them.

Also all the best runs I have ever had have had a form of EE engine in (including Paxman range).

V16s 2xD18s 2xV12s

There are 50 to 60 year old locomotives running on BR with EE engines!
